Fragaria vesca 'Alpine Yellow’

Yellow Alpine Strawberry

The French call these fraises de bois. These are woodland plants that produce no runner like the common strawberry, they also are best when grown in part shade, unlike regular strawberries which like sun. The fruit are small, but very fragrant and delicious. Sold in gourmet stores. This unusual variety is yellow when ripe, which tends to trick birds into thinking they aren't ripe yet. Great in pots, makes a nice full clump.
